Her Majesty's affirmation of motherhood


Kate Winslet has just received a CBE for her services to drama. Apparently Her Majesty congratulated her and asked about her enjoyment of acting. Kate Winslet said that ashe loved it but not as much as she loved being a mother. The Queen said "Yes well that is the only job."

That is rather encouraging. I wonder how long it will be before some fool in the House of Commons moves to censure Her Majesty for her discriminatory approach to the traditional family.

This was reported in the Daily Telegraph but I picked it up from a recently started blog Sub Umbra Alarum Suarum which is the latest addition to the list of blogs written by Blackfen parishioners. "Mattheus" has some good articles up already and I recommend his blog for your sidebar.

Well she's not necessarily a great role model (Winslet, that is) as she's gone through two husbands already and is on her own again.

Point taken. (I was more interested in what the Queen said.)

Fr. Tim,

Exactly. It was the Queen's comment that struck me.

Well, let's not judge. Hollywood and its pressures being what they are, we certainly can't determine circumstances. Let's not be like those people who condemned the woman at the well.

Father Finnegan,

I'm new here, drawn by my interest in Fr. Zuhlsdorf's blog.

Anyway -- who would be in greater trouble: Her Majesty or Miss Winslet for supporting traditional marriage ?
